George Leo Haydock, on Ps 133:2
George Leo Haydock · 1774–1849
Ps 133:2 · Douay-Rheims
“In the nights lift up your hands to the holy places, and bless ye the Lord.”
On this verse:
“Lift up. This posture was very natural, and expressive, 1 Timothy ii. 8. (Haydock) — Agatharcides testifies, that the Jews did no servile work on the sabbath, but “stretched forth their hands to pray in the temple, till the evening.” (Josephus, contra App. 1.)”
